[QUOTE="kanga, post: 7406651, member: 9270"]One reason for using those type of stamps is that you can't even get face value from collectors. You might as well use them for postage. Stamp dealers will pay about 50-80% of face value. I use them for mailing occasionally. The problem is the number of stamps required can leave no room for the address. 3¢ stamps were in use for years. Do your math and see how many would be required to mail a regular 1 oz letter today. The answer is --> 19.[/QUOTE]
